Fried Pacific Cob Fish

FRIED PACIFIC COB FISH

I am in love with this fish called Pacific Cob. "Don't get me wrong" I love all kinds of fish but this one is so awesome. The white mild flavored flesh of cod is available throughout the year and is a wonderful substitute for meat protein with its versatility making it easily adaptable to all methods of cooking.

In the northwest pacific catches a lot of cod by the united states. I call that good eats. Cod belong to the same family (Gadidae) along with both haddock and pollock. It's not surprising that the words "cod" and "cold" are so similar since cod need the cold, deep, Arctic waters to grow, reproduce and survive.

Cob has a good milder cleaner taste than Catfish where Catfish is eating a lot in the southern states and always bought to the table on fish night. But I like the texture of the cob and I am happy trying another kind of fish market.

If you don't like fish and never eating fish..I think you should try Pacific Cob and those who don't like catfish should try Pacific Cob.

Mix all of the ingredients together and blend until there are no lumps. Preheat the oil in your deep fat fryer to the proper temperature for the food you are cooking.
